With so many guitars out there to choose from, selecting a new instrument is a challenging job whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro. Seagull makes things a little easier, though, since you can rest assured that when you choose one of these guitars, you're investing in great quality and precise craftsmanship. That's because Seagull makes its instruments in-house in a small Canadian village, using the best local tonewoods and carefully overseeing every part of the meticulous fabrication process. The first step to finding the right Seagull guitar for you is simply to decide what you're looking for in an instrument. You can start out by looking into their solid lineup of acoustic guitars. For beginners, some suggestions would be The Original 56 if you're looking for a dreadnought body style or the Entourage Grand Acoustic Guitar for a classical design. More experienced and adventurous guitarists will like options such as the Walnut 12, which delivers distinctive, bold tone thanks to its doubled-up strings.

If versatility is your goal, consider an acoustic-electric guitar. The Seagull Entourage Rustic CW QIT is a great choice, for example, with a cutaway body style to let you reach every fret and high-end electronics for solid performance through your favorite amp. Another fantastic instrument that's really at home in the studio and onstage is the Performer Cutaway Mini Jumbo QI Acoustic-Electric Guitar. Its beautiful spruce top and three-layer hardwood body create excellent tone for any gig or recording session. But the real beauty of these and Seagull's other acoustic-electric models is choice: you can play them unplugged as acoustics, hook up an amp for a volume boost and even add effects pedals if you like.

No matter which Seagull guitar you decide is right for you, you can rest assured that you've made a good choice. From the accessible Excursion series to the premium Coastline, Entourage and Maritime models, it's just a matter of finding the right features and the right fit for your budget. Once you've done that, all that's left is to get started making music with your new Seagull guitar.
